Abstract
The world production of sheep milk has more than doubled in the last 50 years. However, sheep milk and sheep milk products have not yet become a traditional consumer product in Russia. One of the main reasons for this is the lack of specialised dairy breeds of sheep and insufficient use of modern breeding methods, including marker-assisted selection. The article considers the main candidate genes of sheep dairy productivity, shows their influence on milk yield, fat and protein content, resistance to mastitis.
